Samsara, Thank you so much for the kind words. But this is not my first year abroad, and it is not the problem with the accent( may be I have already overcome it), wandering from one place to another place has given me a kind of accent deciphering ability. Right now, I am just overwhelmed with everything that is coming/happeing to me specially in the academic front. Just feel like I am lagging a lot lot behind my fellow mates.
